Thanks.

Anyway, I just looked up the New York Public Library (turns out there are several), and apparently, the main branch is close to the Old Man's Corner.

That means that Par will have to secure the goodwill of the Slavers' Guild in order to run salvage operations close to it; not merely that, but the slaves there are the easiest form of cheap labor, meaning that the most pragmatic thing to do is to buy some of them for his salvage operations.

So I have to ask; what is your character's view towards slavery?

Doesn't like it.  After all, he was a slave to an AI until a few years ago.  Buying them in order to free them might be okay, as long as you don't mistreat them before releasing them.
As for training an army to take down the slavers, he can definitely get behind that.  It fact, find a few robots for him to fix up and he can get you some help.
